It's just being handled so poorly. They could have just been straight forward and said they unfortunately needed to cut off API access due to cost but that they are dedicated to improving the official app based on user feedback over the course of a year to help with moderation and fix all the quirks on mobile. It still would have been unfortunate to lose third party apps, but at least it would have shown that they cared about the user experience. But no, we get this beat around the bush, insulting attitude from the CEO. He just sounds so out of touch.
They could have slowed the roll of shitty changes and successfully boiled the frog without much uproar.
They aren't even competent bastards.
They should tied third party app access to reddit premium
